Make dem sanction Nigeria

How? That would be the end of ECOWAS because Nigeria contributes more than one-third of its yearly budget.

The ECOWAS Parliament on Monday appealed to the Nigerian government to reopen its closed borders as it hampers on the implementation of free trade movement within the ECOWAS region.
Speaker of the Parliament, Hon. Moustapha Cisse Lo made the call in a statement at the opening of the 2nd Extra-Ordinary Session of the ECOWAS Parliament in Monrovia, Liberia.

He added that the border closure poses a threat to the implementation of the Protocol on the Free Movement of Persons at a time when Africa need to intensify efforts for effective abolition of barriers within the Community.

Cisse Lo, however, urged the government to find a permanent solution to the challenge of smuggling, rather than closing the borders, which was not a lasting solution.

“In the same vein, the closure of the Nigerian borders with Benin more than a month ago and Niger more recently is a hindrance to the achievement of the Community’s main objective, which is to achieve the creation of a prosperous, borderless West African region where peace and harmony prevail.

“The ECOWAS Parliament calls for compliance with Community provisions and thus calls for the reopening of borders and a coordinated fight against smuggling in the region;

“The root causes of this recurrent situation must be studied with a view to finding a permanent solution,” he added.

He also condemned the Xenophobic attacks on Nigerians in South Africa, saying that it had constituted real threats to African integration.

“At the time of our session, serious events are taking place on our continent and should be given special attention.

“Indeed, in South Africa, in recent weeks, we have witnessed an upsurge in extremely violent xenophobic acts.

“These sad images of Africa, these painful events and the tensions they generate challenge us as elected representatives of our peoples, we are extremely concerned and deeply outraged.

“The ECOWAS Parliament calls on the South African authorities to assume their responsibility by guaranteeing all their foreign nationals the right to life, physical integrity and free movement.

“We also call on all African States and the African Union to adopt diligent initiatives to restore peace and security and ensure a return to calm in South Africa and all other States.

Cisse Lo, however, expresses the readiness of the Parliament to discuss the 2020 budget of the ECOWAS Community.

He said that the agenda of the extraordinary session was to adopt Parliament’s draft Budget for 2020 financial year, as well as the revision of Rule 13 of the Rules of Procedure of the Fourth Parliament devoted to the Inaugural Session.

He said that an Ad Hoc Committee was set up to prepare a preliminary draft of Parliament’s Budget for the year 2020.

According to him, the report of the said Ad Hoc Committee was transmitted and examined by the Bureau of Parliament at its last meeting held in Monrovia.

“Parliament’s competent committee, in particular, the Administration, Finance and Budget Control Committee, after approval by Parliament will report to the Plenary.

“This is an opportunity for each of us, honourable colleagues, to impose a rigorous discipline on ourselves in order to examine the preliminary draft Budget 2020 carefully and objectively.

” I remain convinced that we will be diligent and punctual so that the full treatment of our agenda can be accomplished under good and fruitful conditions,” he said. (NAN)

I have not even come to bandits massacre and raiding and burning whole villages and towns,fulanis kidnappers,killing and kidnapping thousands including your politicians and your useless army working for them.You have 1 million i repeat 1 million problems and just this week boko haram invaded your universities and killing spree buh you say they have been eliminated according to you and the illiterate fulani president of yours.If your mother is dead and you say ir tell people that she's just sleeping, remember that you're not deceiving anyone buh yourself. Your poverty capital country is useless and Ghana is a shining example for Africa.Do you have average security,peace and electricity in your country. There are more poor people in Nigeria than 1.5 billion Indian.What a shame .Why don't a single terrorist attack come to Ghana since 1957.They're all over Burkina Faso,Cote d'Ivoire are our direct neighbors and Nigeria and we have Hausa fulanis here too.Why don't they try.They will smell pepper.We are 4th most peaceful and secured country in Africa if you care to know

Buhari has problems closing Benin Nigerian boarder, but leaves the entire northern boarders open for illegal herdsmen from everywhere. According to Fulani tradition, there is no boarder between nations from Senegal to Chad.

Nigerians are very funny. Ghanaians shut over 1,000 Nigerians petty shops and businesses in Ghana in order to protect our local petty businesses and to enforce our anti foreigner engaging in small businesses in Ghana just last year and Nigerians including your useless trade associations were crying and running to ECOWAS to protest and plead with Ghana saying ECOWAS free trade agreement buh now because you're being corrupt with useless borders,you're crying that Benin is destroying your local farmers economy because they're importing rice into your country. You see your stupid.You see Benin and Niger are infant economies so you're bullying them.Why not try that with Ghana or even your neighbor Cameroon who is not even part of ECOWAS buh is a chief smuggler in your useless country and you will see that what South Africa did to you is even small.Have you seen 10 million Nigerians running back to your country before including your stupid banks and zoo glo.And stop deceiving yourself that you supply Ghana with electricity, idiot,fool,you know Ghana even generates electricity more than you and even sells the surplus to Togo and Burkina Faso.We buy gas that you were flaring away from you not electricity dummy.And even now we produce our own gas so we no longer need your useless gas.

You can't close borders when there is little or no local production.

Why not? People don't have hands to farm or there are no lands to farm. Food production is the most basic thing. Let us start with that first.

Right now local production is little or zilch so closing the border will increase prices and affect common people.
